Auditions for Irving Berlin's musical,
Holiday Inn, on May 13th and May 14th. Signups in the Black Box Theatre (Rm 2431). Performances will be November 7-9 and 14-16. All high school students and rising 8th graders are welcome to auditions. Auditions consist of singing a song from the show and a short dance combination. What the show is about: When singer-songwriter Jim Hardy tires of showbiz, he shocks his best friend Ted and fiancée Lila by leaving the bright lights of Broadway behind and for a calm life in a farmhouse in Connecticut. At first, he greets his new life with enthusiasm, but, just as he starts to think farm life isn’t all it’s cracked up to be, he meets Linda Mason, a spunky school teacher harboring immense talent and big dreams. Together, they bring life back to the Mason farm by transforming it into the Holiday Inn, a lively venue for festive performances celebrating the red letter days on the calendar. However, when Ted shows up ready to spirit Linda away to Hollywood, will Jim lose his best shot at happiness? With dance numbers galore and a score packed with Irving Berlin classics like “Blue Skies”, ”Heat Wave”, “Shaking the Blues Away” and the beloved “White Christmas”.
